The Augusta Planning Board has approved an application for Popeyes Louisiana Kitchen Restaurant, the second in central Maine, to open in the capital city.
The drive-thru restaurant will be located on Western Avenue in Augusta, where the former Friendly’s had been for decades.
Popeyes, known for their New Orleans styled fried chicken, also has a location at the West Gardiner Service Plaza. Other current locations include South Portland and Kennebunk, with a Lewiston announcement expected soon.
